@Tank-Battles You are very welcome. It really is a very beautiful line.

Apart from the beauty of the scenery, every Swiss cab ride video I watch impresses me with the quality of Swiss railway engineering, the sense of their politicians that allows infrastructure to be built, and the maintenance of the built lines. Have a look at cab ride videos from the UK, France, Italy, Croatia, etc. There are weeds growing up through the stations and the siding tracks. The station buildings look like derelict, abandoned buildings. They look like third world railway systems that have been allowed to decay.

Alors désherbage sans produit chimique connaît pas sauf à renouveler la voie et ballast tous les 10 ans. Les CFF mettent en œuvre une solution avec de l’eau bouillante ! Je serait curieux de connaître la consommation d’eau et d’énergie au Kms ? Ces infos ne sont pas en source ouverte.😊

Dear Roadie3124, thank you for your comment which I share entirely. As a Swiss, I can confirm that all the Federal Railways infrastructures and systems are of high quality, very clean, tidy and reliable. But travelling by train in Switzerland is expensive. Maintaining the railway network in good conditions costs a lot of money. The policy of our governement is to levy taxes on private means of transportation and maintain rather high prices for railway tickets. There is also a subscription system to reduce fares for those who travel daily or very often by train. If the individual transportation means would face a crisis due to petrol shortage for instance, Switzerland would still be able to offer good travel conditions to its people (at some rush hours with overcrowded trains of course). Thank you for your attention.

Thanks for letting us have a cab drivers view.

@ZvonimirZelenika

There are two cross-over points in Furka Base Tunnel (Geren and Rotondo), and there is also a access/escape tunnel at the middle (Bedretto ventilation tunnel) built to speed up the construction, which is actually used today by ETH Zurich as a geothermal research laboratory. Originally, there were ideas of a star with trains also being able to go to Bedretto but at the end it is a narrower access/escape tunnel (look for Bedretto-Fenster). But it's hard to see anything inside, tunnel is very dark and it's easy to miss the cross-overs if there is no incoming trains.

The Y, V, or W arrangement of rail sleepers allows the track to have more stability. Each sleeper is connected to the one infront and the one behind so load can be transferred across or along a track assembly. In addition on inclines the rack loads are distributed across the assembly and not the individual sleepers. Can be used for any track gauge. Main line Singen to Schaffhausen has them on some boggy ground.

Hello , I enjoyed the train ride with the stunning views.Switzerland is truly a magical country , and i was lucky to go to school in the village of Glion next to lake Geneva. Just 1 question, at the station of Realp, there was a car train being unloaded. Are they brand new cars being delivered, or are they people with their cars ? If they are the public with their cars why do they use the train and where has the train arrived from ? Thank you Jason

@RailRelaxation

2 ай бұрын

@jaycfc6955 There is a car train between Oberwald and Realp through the base Furka Tunnel. It is for the passengers with cars, in order to arrive faster and to avoid Furka pass road. The trip takes around 20 minutes and gives you a time save of 45 minutes, compared to driving over the Furka pass.

Truly a beautiful line with beautiful scenery, plowing through the Rhone valley until reaching the Furka Pass and Andermatt. I remember that a few years ago or not long ago either you or some other KZreadr had followed the old Realp-Odenwald steam rack route! Beautiful areas as always... From the Brig junction under the Simplon to the Furka, well I had only seen this line on atlases. Thanks for sharing it! The Grengiols spiral tunnel is spectacular! Even on the old Gotthard line, going up and down there are several. I wanted to know two things if you can answer me: 1) I think you put the Go-pro on the fuselage of the train on the front but do you do it because it's just an amateur passion or are you a train driver for work? 2) What permits are needed to stay in the cabin? I don't think everyone can get on moving locomotives! Waiting for answers as usual I still have a lot of your videos to watch and I will do so soon I hope! A thousand thanks!

This is 1000mm. In Switzerland, mainline railways are standard gauge (1435mm) while these Alpine mountain (MGB and RhB being largest) railways are 1000mm (plus of course some of the tram, funicular and local rail systems). There are also few short 800mm lines in Switzerland as well but they are rare.
